10 Months!

She is growing up so fast!
We took dinner to some friends of ours the other night who had a baby a couple of weeks ago. John and I couldn't get over how tiny their precious daughter is. We looked at each other and tried to remember those first few weeks. Wow sooooo much has happened!
I have tried to get her to walk behind this toy but she will have NOTHING to do with it. I ran to get some coffee and came back to her walking across her play area.
Margaret is (crawling) all over the place. You can not take your eyes off of her for one second . . . right Papa :)
She is such a daddy's girl and loves watching him cut the grass.
Daddy where are you????
There you are!!
This past week I heard a lot of ruckus on our front porch. Blue jays were going crazy so after a few minutes I decided to see what all the fuss was about before they woke Margaret up. This adorable little guy was at the front door. Scared me to death! He stuck around til the sun went down and off he went.
Margaret LOVES books!

and bath time! The moment I open the shower curtain, she bolts to the bathroom . . .
to watch the tub fill up with water!

Such a happy girl!
We finally found a food she does NOT like . . . cauliflower.
(Seems she is starting to not like much these days! She not only threw sweet potatoes on the floor tonight but spit them out! Um what. She loves them!)
We did find more food she loves . . . blueberries and cranberries! YUM!
I made a recipe in my baby cookbook this morning - old fashioned oatmeal with cinnamon and vanilla. Margaret loved it and even fed herself several bites. So proud of my big girl!!
This pretty much sums up our last few weeks. Wild and crazy!!! When Margaret was sick she started a new nap schedule that makes it VERY hard for mom to get anything done. Which means we have barely left the house.
Sweet Langston brought over some adorable summer outfits for us to try. We are all set for a fun trip to the Keys!




Margaret is waving and clapping. When I read a book that says clap your hands or patty cake, Margaret claps away.
Friday we said good bye to yet another tree . . . the huge palm tree that made a big mess (all over the yard thanks to the squirrels)

Over the next few weeks we are going from stark white to . . . ??? We have narrowed it down to a couple but man is it tough! Especially when I was told on Thursday I had to have a color picked out. Sounds easy . . . No way! Have you seen how many colors are out there!!!!!
Stay tuned for pics of our newly painted house.
